I somewhat agree. I think everyone should have to do TDD at least once, on a reasonably sized project. Thereafter, I'd trust them to pick and choose the important tests to write. TDD tends to result in a lot of unnecessary testing, but I've seen too many devs with no idea what should be tested, or how to write a good test, or how to write non-fragile tests, etc. Note, the above is for things like web applications. For, say, hospital or billing code, TDD makes perfect sense.
